WAUKEGAN, ILLINOIS NATIVE KILLED IN CAR CRASH IN WISCONSIN
Fans of the television show "Boston Legal" will be sad to learn that actor Justin Mentell was found dead near his crashed Jeep near a rural highway in Wisconsin. He played Garrett Wells, an attorney on the popular TV show. Mentell, who was just 27 years-old and a native of Waukegan, Illinois, was killed when his Jeep went down a steep embankment and hit two trees. Mentell attended Waukegan High School and Northern Illinois University. According to reports, there is no indication that drugs or alcohol played a factor in the crash, although toxicology reports won't be available for several weeks.
